It's getting better, growing stronger

Steady improvement in Mum's condition. Most of the stitches are out, only a few to go. She spends most of the day in a chair rather than lying in bed. Getting herself in and out of bed. Regular physiotherapy to get her walking.

Haven't spoken to Mum for a couple of days, partly because her direct line doesn't seem to be working and partly because I am running a training course in the US. What with the flight and the time difference it is difficult to find the conversational window.
